Bachelor Nation Couple Raven Gates & Adam Gottschalk Gear Up for Their Wedding Next Week
Ready to (finally) make it official!
Raven Gates headed over to Instagram on Thursday to share her enthusiasm at tying the knot with fiancé Adam Gottschalk next week — after having to postpone their wedding three times due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
“9 more days until I’m Mrs Gottschalk. Just me. You. And our family,” Raven captioned a slideshow of sweet photos of the beloved Bachelor Nation couple. “I can’t wait! Life is more fun with you- and we’re just beginning.”
The brunette beauty added, “These pictures were taken right before Adam proposed in May 2019. How has it been almost 2 years already?”
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
The pair — who first met and fell in love while filming “Bachelor in Paradise” Season 4 in 2017 — originally planned to get married in the summer of 2020. Raven explained that the ongoing health crisis forced them to readjust multiple times during an appearance on “The Bachelor: Greatest Seasons — Ever!” in August.
“We were supposed to be married three times by now and haven’t yet,” Raven told host Chris Harrison with a laugh. “My brother asked me over the weekend, ‘Are you married yet? Have you just not went ahead and eloped at this point?’ And I’m like, ‘No, we’re waiting it out.’”
In November, the Grey Suede founder revealed that she and Adam will be exchanging vows at The Olana, a luxe venue in Dallas, Texas, where they currently reside. Raven recently gave fans a peek inside the palatial establishment — which features a pool, basketball court, theater, bowling alley, and so much more — in a March YouTube video.
“So, a wedding has so many details. Even the smallest details matter. So, The Olana hasn’t skipped out on anything,” she said in the clip, later admitting. “I’m most excited about the bridal suite. It’s all about me, let’s be honest.”
Best wishes to Raven and Adam ahead of their big day!
